Annapolis is full of beautiful old architecture, and interesting people, including lots of soldiers from the Naval Academy. Yeah, my navy kid is a little short on top, but my book is angled slightly as well, so it may not be as bad as it looks. I love this long skinny building. It reminds me of London.

I brought my paints, but didn’t make time for them. It was all I could do to sketch something out before bed. I really should be painting a lot this month because next month is “Inktober” and I had hoped to play with ink all month. There’s a lot going on with work for the next two months… I’d hate for my project to fizzle out the last two months, and I don’t plan to stop, but I’m thinking my projects each day will be very quick. I’d like to end the (art) year with a bang, not a whimper, but even a whimper is still a noise, right?
